What should I expect at Kids House?

---

 

Where do my kids go?

We offer Kids Bible Fellowship classes on Suindyas at 8:30, 10:00 & 11:30.  1st & 2nd graders will begin in their designated classroom for small group and then go to "The Backyard" for their large group where you will pick them up.  3rd-5th graders will begin in "Upstreet" and then be picked up in their small group classes.  Please see a host in the lobby to find your child’s class.

Why so tight on security (or Why can’t my teen pick up my kid?)

We want to provide the best learning environment, and that includes a peace of mind for children and parents that no one will get lost or left behind.  It is our policy to retain all children until their parent or authorized adult comes to receive them from the room.

How can I get another adult authorized to pick up my child?

A parent badge is being added as a new element to our building security.  Any adult needing the ability to pick up another child can come, with the parent of the child in question, to the badging station in the lobby.  A photo “Parent ID” will be created and that adult’s “family number” will be added to the Child’s ID.

What about the Self Release badges I’ve seen?

Self Release is an option we currently provide almost exclusively to 4th or 5th grade students.  Parents can complete a Security Request Form, and the student gets his own ID to keep up with.  Wearing this ID allows the older child to leave the building upon the completion of his class.  However, it is our preference to keep children until the arrival of their parents whenever possible.

Is there a place for my younger child (birth thru kinder)?

Wonderful child care is available during all three service times. Children are welcomed by teachers who desire to show God's love through age-appropriate activities, songs, Bible lessons and craft projects. The early childhood area is also a secure area, requiring ID badges on all who enter. You can sign in and receive a visitor badge in the lobby of the Children's Building. 

Where do I park?

Families with children are invited to park next to our brand new Children's Building located in the southwest parking area.  Please enter from the Rockhill Rd entrance for the easiest drop-off of your children.

How can I get answers to more questions?

The Children’s Registration Hosts are present during every children’s program to answer questions, help you get registered, find a classroom, or provide further assistance.  Children's Security Hosts are also on campus during all regular events.
